As one of our previous post mentioned we were blown away when we had the opportunity of visiting this amazing city.

One of our favorite blogs, Made in Brazil posted these photos recently,that are part of an exhibit of 18 photos from an upcoming book,Rio de Cantos 1000, by photojournalist Custodio Coimbra.

Having just seen these two,we believe these to be an exceptional representation of an exceptional city.Should you be lucky enough to soon be visiting Rio (now that it is a "little" cooler),this exhibit will be at Galeria Tempo, til April 24th.

Another amazing book on Rio (can you tell we are a little, just a little, obsessed) was recently published by Tashen.

MaRIO de Janerio Testino is a must for anyone in love with Rio.With a forward by Gisele Bundchen,the exceptionally talented fashion photographer,Mario Testino captures beautifully the heat and sensuality that IS Rio .

Custodio Coimbra's aerial shot of (what I think is) Copacabana beach in Rio is outstanding! See how there are hardly any shadows? That means it was taken at noon, showing how sun-worhsipping cariocas will stand scorching temperatures to keep their sun tans any day! You just can't help hearting Rio...
